About This Quote
When you are found, you are lost. When you are lost, you are found. So, how can you be found? The answer lies in the fact that being lost is the way. If you are not lost, then you are not trying to find yourself. If you are not lost, then you are not experimenting and finding out what it is like to be a person rather than a collection of learned behaviors and habits.
